William Faulkner The study of William Faulkner's impact on the literature of Latin America and the Caribbean has been a core theme of Faulkner studies over the course of the second half of the twentieth century. These studies have centered, however, almost exclusively on Spanish-speaking Latin America to the exclusion of Portuguese speaking Latin America.

How interesting. I was a literature major in college 20 years ago and remember reading some Faulkner short stories. Yhe one that comes to mind was "Barn Burning" and another one about a bear hunt but cannot remember any details of the bear story. Anyway, I did not know Faulkner visited Brasil. I'm married to a Brasilian and have been there 8 times; she's from Sanatrem in Para State and we have a farm 50 mile out of town. I wonder if Faulkner found any similarities between rural residents of Brasil and the Southern US?
Nice article and I'll read the rest at a later date
